Changes to the 2013 Hyundai Genesis

The 2013 Hyundai Genesis is one of the most popular sedans on the market today. The biggest reason is due to Hyundai continuing to find new ways to add luxurious amenities while keeping the price in check.

2013 Hyundai Genesis Review

The 2013 edition has a nice 3.8 liter V6 engine under the hood to give it plenty of power for any kind of driving. With 333 horsepower, it can go from 0-60 in five and a half seconds. You really don’t have to ever worry about not being able to go fast enough or to accelerate quick enough regardless of its size.

In addition to the 3.8 liter V6, you can upgrade to the 4.6 or 5 liter V8 engine to give you an impressive amount of power for a vehicle of its size. Whether you are driving on the highway, or driving in the city, you Genesis will be able to get you around quickly and in luxury with its numerous extra features.

Interior Changes

The 2013 Hyundai Genesis has been overhauled to include rear heated seats so that passengers in the backseat can enjoy most of the comforts of front seat riders. In addition to the seats, there is a new LCD screen in the middle of the gauges which lets the driver know approximately what the average speed of the drive has been, and how long the trip is, letting you know if you are making good time when you are going somewhere on vacation.

The touch screen control panel in the dash is a very nice touch for owners since you can control most aspects of the car, including the climate controls, and the built in GPS navigation system can let you rest assured that your GPS will never run out of juice again. Memory controls allow the car to automatically set itself up to whatever the programmed settings are for a particular driver. This is especially convenient if you don’t want to be re-adjusting the seats every time a spouse or child drives the car.

Fuel Economy

With the standard version, you can expect to get around 19 MPG in the city and 29 MPG on the highway. At first, this may seem a little low, but it is important to remember that you are getting a larger engine along with your sedan. Bigger engines usually fare a little worse with fuel efficiency, but the Hyundai Genesis still does fairly well overall when it comes to how much gas it is going to guzzle.

Depending on what you primarily plan on using your Genesis for, you may want to look into getting a bigger engine. With the larger engines, your fuel efficiency is going to go down further, while at the same time, your power, top speed, and acceleration are all going to go up. There is certainly a trade off if you want a larger engine, but it can be worth it if you are going to make good use of it.

2013 Hyundai Genesis Pricing

For the standard sedan version, you would normally be looking at around $32,000 not including taxes or title fees. The value you are getting at that price point is extremely good and one would be hard pressed to find a similar sedan that offers as many extras for a similar bargain. If you are looking to get one with a large capacity engine, you could end up spending upwards of $42,000 and for most consumers, it may not be worth it. However, if you like the feeling of having a large engine in your car, it might just be exactly what your looking for.

The Hyundai Genesis has always been one of the most reliable cars on the road due to its solid structure and proven track record at holding up under stress. If you are looking for a sedan that offers many of the things a luxury car does but at a fraction of the price, this is the one for you.
